Li Xuanxuan went down the mountain, took a few steps into the large courtyard at the foot of the mountain, waved his hand, and Li Xiewen behind him hurriedly stepped forward, Li Xuanxuan ordered in a low voice:
"Tell that Mu Yalu that I will agree, find a place in the house for her to live, teach her the rules, and then send someone to find out how many children and daughters Mu Jiaoman has."
"Yes."
Li Xuan declared that he would dismiss Li Xiewen, lowered his head and read the "Spiritual Talisman" in his hand, Li Xiewen left the yard, dispatched his manpower out, and walked towards the town by himself.
Mu Yalu waited in the town for a while, and the clansmen behind him all sat on the ground empty-handed, looking indignant, even their leather armor and weapons were stripped away, and finally saw the shrewd young man step forward and bow his hands and said:
"Girl...... My lord agreed, and asked the girl to dismiss the troops and go to the house with me.
Mu Yalu's face was happy, and the nervousness on the faces of the subordinates behind her also dissipated a lot, she quickly thanked her, turned her head to the subordinates and said:
"Everyone, disperse, go back and report to the village owner, Lu'er has completed his instructions."
More than a dozen Shanyue nodded in agreement, and a group of people walked out of the town, Mu Jiaoman was afraid of arousing the suspicion of the Li family, and a servant had not arranged for Mu Yalu, leaving her alone in the yard for a while, deserted.
"Seventh Madam, come with me."
Li Xiewen had already changed his words and bowed respectfully, Mu Yalu was shocked when he heard this "Seventh Lady", knowing that the future would not be easy.
Mu Yalu followed Li Xiewen for a while, and then saw a compound appear in front of him, with green bricks and black tiles, cornices and anti-universe, and the slanted stones in front of the door were wiped clean, so lively.
She followed Li Xiewen into the courtyard, several three or five-year-old children were playing in the courtyard, Li Xiewen whispered:
"These are all children of the Yuan generation, if you have children in the future, you will also follow the Yuan generation."
Mu Yalu nodded blankly, remembering something he had learned before going out, and hurriedly asked:
"Which one is the legitimate son?"
Li Xiewen glanced at her and said solemnly:
"The legitimate sons are all on the mountain, and even these concubines who find out the spiritual aperture after the age of seven are going to go up the mountain, madam, don't have any crooked thoughts, the monk's methods are definitely not what you can imagine!"
Mu Yalu suddenly froze, knowing that Li Xiewen wanted to be crooked, he opened his mouth but couldn't defend himself, and thought to himself:
"My family has been witches for generations, and the blood is pure and noble, as long as Li Xuanxuan is willing to get close to me, where can he not be born with witchcraft... The heir of the spiritual orifice, since he has married to the east, what is there to move his crooked mind......"
Li Xiewen was unaware, and took Mu Yalu to find an empty room, and then whispered:
"The servants in the house have all been arranged, madam, do as you please."
After saying that, he left, leaving Mu Yalu to look at the narrow sky in the courtyard in a daze, with mixed feelings in his heart, pushed open the clean-wiped door, and sat on the bed.
"I will live in this Li family from now on, and I don't know where I will go for the rest of my life."
He listened for a while, and hurriedly walked to the yard at the foot of the mountain.
"Master, Mu Yalu has been arranged, and there is news about Mu Jiaoman."
Li Xuanxuan raised his eyebrows and said in surprise:
"So fast?"
"Back to the head of the family, that Mu Jiao is extremely extravagant, there are thousands of servants in the family, and the Shanyue tribe who fled a few years ago have been servants in his place, and you will know as soon as you inquire."
After Li Xie Wen finished speaking, he saw Li Xuanxuan put down the wooden slip in his hand and said with a smile:
"I thought it was amazing that Lu Sisi had more than 100 wives and concubines in the Lu family, and this Mu Jiaoman actually had thousands of servants, which really didn't care about the people's strength.
"Exactly!"
Li Xiewen quickly echoed and replied:
"The subordinate went down to inquire for a while, and said that this person has three sons and four daughters, one of whom has a spiritual aperture."
Li Xuanxuan nodded, touched his chin and said:
"I know."
"A few days ago, the people of the Lu family and the An family came to discuss trade, and now they have negotiated with Shanyue.
"Yes! Manpower from the two towns has been arranged to do it."
Li Xuanxuan immediately closed his eyes and thought for a while, and ordered:
"In the past few days, I have also touched the corners of the fifth layer of fetal breath, you can try to break through, and in a few days you will break through in seclusion, and everything at home will be sent to Xuanling for him to watch."
"Yes."
Li Xie Wen respectfully agreed, and Li Xuanxuan lowered his head and continued to read.
————
The four towns of Lijia, Lichuankou to the west, bordering Shanyue, and Jingyang and Lijing towns in the middle, surrounded by Lijing Mountain and Meichi Mountain.
Lidaokou is the easternmost part of the Li family's land boundary, bordering the Huaqian Mountain of the Lu family, and with the slow expansion of the Li family's population, many villagers have reclaimed the wasteland to the edge, creating a vibrant scene.
Although later the Ji family and the Lu family had migrants one after another, the land was still vast and sparsely populated, so many Li family hunters would cross the border to chop wood and hunt on the Lu family's border.
Now a vibrant village has welcomed two uninvited guests, one with a bald head and a robe, and the other with gray hair and a jade ruyi in his hand.
The two kept shuttling through the forest, jumping up from time to time, watching the trend of the mountains and talking continuously, pinching the breath control technique for half an hour, as if they were looking for something.
"Brother An, where is the ore vein?"
Lu Sisi asked, and then saw the bald man look at his feet, pinched the spell in his hand, landed on the ground, picked up a wisp of loess and looked at it, and said with a smile:
"I can't go wrong, I've been looking for it for so many days, and this Qingwu mine is long and narrow, spanning several miles, twisting and stretching, and it's at this foot."
Lu Sisi suddenly frowned, walked around, and jumped back and forth on the heads of the trembling villagers, but frowned and muttered to himself:
"It is true that more than half of them are in the Li family boundary... This is difficult, I'm afraid it's hard to hide it."
The bald man also looked embarrassed and said:
"Exactly! This is my An family's pulse finding technique, Brother Lu agreed to share 30% of me, but this mining is huge, how can it be hidden, it must be divided into the Li family."
"Harm!"
Lu Sisi sighed and said in a low voice:
"Although it is a micro vein, this Qingwu mine has been developed and produces dozens of spirit stones every year, so I am really unwilling to share the profits like this!"
"So what! Can you still destroy the Li family and annex these four towns?"
The bald man smiled bitterly and shook his head, and replied:
"Li Tongya is cautious and has superb swordsmanship, it is not easy to kill him, not to mention that I heard that the Li family has a close friendship with the Xiao family in Lixia County, and there is also a Qingsui disciple in the sect, with a very big background!"
Lu Sisi smiled lowly, put away his unrealistic fantasies, and said reluctantly:
"In a few days, I will go to Li's house to discuss the development of mineral veins! I'll take a good look at this vein first."
The bald man surnamed An nodded, pinched the magic formula in his hand, and carefully discerned the specific direction of the ore vein.
